    How far along are you & how big is baby? 36 weeks and the size of a cabbage patch doll

    Upcoming appointments? The 26th

    Symptoms? Full blown carpal tunnel in my right hand. Got a splint last night and as long as I sleep on my left side it helps for now.

    Cravings?  Finally got the pizza I was craving so nothing new yet 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? F you to the lady at the store who asked if I was having twins. Nooe just a beached whale thanks though.

    GTKY: if you could go back in time, what year would you go to? (I'm assuming two way time travel so you won't be stuck there forever)  I think I'd like to go way back to like 80 million BC and see what things looked like before humans.

  • How far along are you & how big is baby?    36 weeks and a chihuahua 

    Upcoming appointments?   Tomorrow! It's labeled as "birth plan" so it might be a more interesting appointment than usual

    Symptoms?  Baby is getting uncomfortably big. I can't bend forward very well and I'm feeling him lower near my hips. 

    Cravings?  Ice cream, any kind of cold drink (juice, ice coffee, iced tea)

    Rants/Raves/Questions?   At my newborn prep class, the teacher was talking about purple crying and I so hope my baby isn't one of those severe criers. 

    GTKY: if you could go back in time, what year would you go to? (I'm assuming two way time travel so you won't be stuck there forever)  I've always been fascinated by 1970s New York. It was probably disgusting, but it would be fun to explore.

    34 Weeks.  Cantaloupe sized.

    Upcoming appointments?   
    Next week. 

    Symptoms?  
    The hormone swings are getting hard. I'm angry, weepy, annoyed, and cranky all in the span of two minutes. 

    Cravings?  
    Watermelon. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?   
    My shower is next week and even thinking about it gives me anxiety. I wish it didn't and that I could enjoy even the idea of my baby shower. 

    GTKY: if you could go back in time, what year would you go to? (I'm assuming two way time travel so you won't be stuck there forever)   

    Britian during WWII, such an interesting point in history.

    This is hard, I think I'd like to go back to an ancient civilization and explore or watch festivals. I can't even decide which one, because most of them would be fascinating.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?   My MIL is coming in next Sunday from San Diego to stay with us up until 3 weeks after Baby Girl comes. Wonderful right? Yeah it would be except when they left here from their last visit on July 4th weekend we had a misunderstanding and she hasn't called us yet to apologize (well she apologized to her son, my DH, but not to me who she deeply offended and made me cry for days). Hasn't even called to FT with our 2 yo DS too. I'm still waiting...we'll see,

    GTKY: if you could go back in time, what year would you go to? (I'm assuming two way time travel so you won't be stuck there forever)        1998 - I was 15/16 years old and met *NSYNC at a book signing at a bookstore in Downtown Disney Orlando. Plus I went to 2 *NSYNC concerts that year. I know it sounds corny but I loved that year sooooo much! Plus I fell in love with San Francisco that summer!!

    How far along are you & how big is baby?    36 weeks - cabbage patch doll.

    Upcoming appointments?   OB this thursday!

    Symptoms?  Carpel Tunnel in my left hand (my knuckles are so sore now). A lot of pelvic pressure but that's nothing new.

    Cravings?  Caesar Salad...all day everyday. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?   While I really don't take the health care benefits we get here in Canada for granted, I have a rant - My order just came in and we got the other stuff put together (peri bottles, mesh underwear, maternity pads, breast pads, diapers, wipes, swaddle blankets, clothes for us, clothes for baby etc) for our hospital bag and I'm not super sure how I'm supposed to get it all in one bag for us and one for baby. I need to bring a pillow & blanket for DH, shampoo, soap, they suggest bringing a towel, robe etc on top of it all. I'm basically packing for a weekend away at a cabin it feels like but with a specific list from the hospital. Then being told that since August is one of the busiest birthing months - it's first come first serve for private recovery rooms (we have a private room for delivery) and that if I don't get a private room it is possible DH can't stay with us over night in recovery. It's not the end of the world but it's also not ideal and makes me a little sad. 

    GTKY: if you could go back in time, what year would you go to? (I'm assuming two way time travel so you won't be stuck there forever)      1920's - I love The Great Gatsby.

    @JWatt5 it's the same in Germany for a private room. We were already told we'd almost for sure be sharing a recovery room and that DH won't be able to stay with us.

    @Nxy - that's what they've told us too. Probably doesn't hurt to have DH go home and get some rest but he's pretty bummed he can't stay.

  • @Nxy @JWatt5 I'm really sorry to hear that. DH and I would be really upset about that  :/

    Same, DH had to leave the next morning after DS was born because he was in the middle of classes for work. My mom was with me, though. That's just so cruel.
